i've got forest green too and also will have to paint my calipers and drums when weather gets nicer.  i will go with black color to hide them, i dont like that "show-off wanna-be" colors  Undecided

please dont u dare to color them yellow! i think dark green color will be good to blend with body color. if u want red color, just paint front with red, but don't paint the drums... tooo much red looks bad. 

or go like i will with black...

sorry Gr8witeLxi, it is what it is, lol  Tongue. it does look the same tho—is why i think it to be somewhat of a waste of time to remove 'em. i just didn't do mine as well as i shoulda and that's why i need to re-do 'em already, is all. i'd go with silver. i just think that'd look nice in contrast to the forest green—yellow might be a bit much, imo. oh yeah, i'm kinda like you Ivan, i don't really care for the "show-off" style either, that's why i went with the same color as my car (metallic blue).

i'm not knocking on the ghetto-fabulousness of the way you did it… i did mine the same way, lol.

off topic response: you need to use some bedliner to paint the beater with. never have to worry about anything then Wink. you oughta do some sponge tech and hand painted pinstripes and/or flames lol. that would be hot  Cool
